Please help with transparent texture

Hey guys and gals I have a little problem. I have a few model textures that have places on them that need to be invisible but I cant figure out how to make them work right. When I convert them in asset manager I set them to blend and they look ok but the parts that are not supposed to be invisible are see through.
Here is an example of what I'm talking about on my weapon clip:
Without Blend set in Asset Manager:

With Blend set in Asset Manager and the black parts removed in photoshop:

I went into Photoshop and deleted the black part of the texture then set asset manager to blend and that's what you see in the second photo. Its hard to tell but the part that's metal is see through (which I don't want lol).

Please help guys I feel like this is a simple fix but I just cant figure it out.

How to remove grenades at start?

Hey guys I've ran into an annoying problem. Usually you start a map and you have zero grenades until the round starts then you get two. Well I start off with four grenades then the round starts and I have six.
I edited my steilhandgrenade weaponfile then added the it to my mod/weapons/sp and included this in my mod.csv:
weapon,sp/stielhandgranate

No matter what I try I always start with four normal grenades then get my two custom grenades when I start round one.

If anyone can help me solve this annoying problem that would be awesome.

My zombiemode.gsc:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

award_grenades_for_survivors()
{
	players = get_players();

	for (i = 0; i < players.size; i++)
	{
		if (!players[i].is_zombie)
		{
			if( !players[i] HasWeapon( "stielhandgranate" ) )
			{
				players[i] GiveWeapon( "stielhandgranate" );	
				players[i] SetWeaponAmmoClip( "stielhandgranate", 0 );
			}

			if ( players[i] GetFractionMaxAmmo( "stielhandgranate") < .25 )
			{
				players[i] SetWeaponAmmoClip( "stielhandgranate", 2 );
			}
			else if (players[i] GetFractionMaxAmmo( "stielhandgranate") < .5 )
			{
				players[i] SetWeaponAmmoClip( "stielhandgranate", 2 );
			}
			else
			{
				players[i] SetWeaponAmmoClip( "stielhandgranate", 2 );
			}
		}
	}
}

My zombiemode_weapons.gsc looks like this:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

// Grenades                                         		
	//add_zombie_weapon( "fraggrenade", 							&"ZOMBIE_WEAPON_FRAGGRENADE_250", 			250,	"" ,			0 );

[Approved] Wayne Manor

Wayne Manor

Message from WhippyTrout:
I chose Wayne Manor as my ideal place to go during the zombie apocalypse. I figured I would have everything I needed to survive. I mean you'd be under the same roof of the worlds greatest detective and crimefighter, and oh yea there's the BATCAVE!

Little did I know that Batman was away searching for Robin who had gone missing and that the Joker had taken over Wayne Manor. So now Joker has me and Robin and is holding us hostage.

Story:
Two years ago Joker escaped Arkham Asylum along with several of Gotham's other notorious criminals. What was expected to be mass chaos in Gotham turned out to be the complete opposite. Following the escape there were no sightings or crimes regarding Joker, it was as if he had disappeared. Dick Greyson (Nightwing) left to establish himself in another city (Bludhaven) and Batman began training Jason Todd to be the new Robin. One night Jason went on a solo run but never returned. Night after night Batman scoured the city, running down every lead, pressing every underworld connection, but no one had seen any sign of Robin. He expanded his search on into Bludhaven with the assistance of Nightwing. One night while returning home from Bludhaven after months of searching Batman noticed he had a missed call and a voice message...

Voicemail machine: "You have one missed call"

Joker: "Ring Ring! So how do you keep a secret from the world's greatest detective? Well do you know? It's easy, you stick it right in front of him. Right under his long pointy nose, and wait Ha Ha"

Voicemail machine: "End of new messages"

The updated final version of Wayne Manor has been posted on the normal maps section and this contest post will no longer be used/supported. The Download Buttons will also not work on this page. Please refer to the new post here: http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php?topic=9821.msg108055#msg108055

Note you MUST download the .dll file below and put it in your Call of Duty WaW root directory in order to play this map. This is an engine mod that increases the limits of Call of duty WaW
The original post for this mod which has more details on what it does can be found here: http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php/topic,8092.0.html

custom zombie attack animation deals no damage

Hey guys I ported a zombie attack animation from BO II and it works/looks fine but I just noticed today that the zombie doesn't deal any damage to the player. The zombie swings but no damage is dealt.
Here is how I went about adding the animation, maybe someone can tell me what I did wrong:

1. I converted my anim in asset manager unchecking looping, and checking use bones, then selected relative from the dropdown box. I even tried delta but neither made a difference.

2. I added some code in animscripts/melee.gsc.

Code Snippet

Plaintext

pick_zombie_melee_anim( zombie_guy )
{
	melee_anim = undefined;
	if ( zombie_guy.has_legs  && !zombie_guy.boss )  // boss is the zombie with the custom attack animation
	{
		switch(zombie_guy.zombie_move_speed)
		{
 
			case "walk": 
				anims = array_combine(level._zombie_melee[zombie_guy.animname],level._zombie_walk_melee[zombie_guy.animname]);
				melee_anim = random(anims);
				break;
 
			case "run":			
			case "sprint":
				anims = array_combine(level._zombie_melee[zombie_guy.animname],level._zombie_run_melee[zombie_guy.animname]);
				melee_anim = random(anims);
				break;			
		}
	}
	else if( isdefined(zombie_guy.boss) && zombie_guy.boss )
	{
	melee_anim = level._brutus_attack["brutus_attack"];       // my custom zombie attack animation
	}
	else if(zombie_guy.a.gib_ref == "no_legs")
	{
		// if zombie have no legs whatsoever.
		melee_anim = random(level._zombie_stumpy_melee[zombie_guy.animname]);

	}
	else
	{
 		melee_anim = random(level._zombie_melee_crawl[zombie_guy.animname]);
	}

	return melee_anim;
}

4. I added the anim in my zombiemode.gsc

Code Snippet

Plaintext

level._brutus_attack["brutus_attack"] 				= %brutus_attack;

Like I said it looks fine he just doesn't deal any damage. Please help me out someone.

Having Trouble with custom Zombie Animations

I've been trying to change the zombie walk, run, and sprint anims to ones from BOII but I cant seem to get them working. Here is the steps I went through, maybe someone can tell me what I'm doing wrong.
1. I opened my binded zombie model in maya
2. I imported my zombie anim from BOII
3. I selected all bones and meshes then exported the anim (this might be what I did wrong but IDK how to export a zombie anim)
4. I selected all bones and meshes then exported the xmodel
5. I opened asset manager and created the xanim, I set it to use bones, looping, and delta (IDK if thats right either)
6. Then I opened up my zombiemode.gsc and changed the following to my anims name:

Code Snippet

Plaintext

level.scr_anim["zombie"]["run1"]   = %ai_zombie_sprint_v4;

7. Then I went into generic_human.atr and added my anim
8. And added xanim, anim_name to my mapname.csv

If someone can help me out that would be awesome.

Game over issues

Hey guys I'm just finishing up my map for the contest and noticed when I die instead of saying game over it says you win. It's in blue letters like the UGX developer tool help thing. Also my screen plays the end game cameras but flashes the checkerboard default image on and off. How can I for starters disable the UGX helper, then fix the above problems?

Another thing is the game doesn't go back to the select a game mode screen like I thought UGX mod does, instead it just crashes if the host doesn't restart the game quickly. Idk if this is normal.

Please help me out if you can I only have a little more time before the contest deadline.

Help making a vehicle

Hey guys I made a jeep ride using this tutorial http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php?topic=1817.msg17141#msg17141
but I want to change the the jeep model to a custom model I have. Problem is when i simply change the model it turns it into the default vehicle in game. I'm thinking I need to create a vehicle or something in AssMan but I don't know how exactly to do that with a custom model I didn't see anywhere to put my model in the settings.

Also is there a way to change how high a player is sitting in the jeep i want to lower them a little bit, right now it feels like the player is standing on the jeep instead of sitting. I figured I'd need to add something to this?

Code Snippet

Plaintext

tag1 = plane gettagorigin( "tag_driver" );
...
players[0] setorigin( tag1 );
players[0] PlayerLinkTo( plane, "tag_driver", 1.0 );

Thanks,

Help with UGX mod problems

I have spent days trying to get the UGX mod working but I just cant do it. I've followed every video and wiki tutorial posted to the letter several times and even re-installed my call of duty and mod tools 3 times now. I just cant get it to work. I can get the test map that the UGX script placer creates working but I cant get my map working.
Here's my questions:
1. can a .map file with nothing but brushes and a few models cause 400fx error? Because somehow mine is.
2. Is there a certain way to use an existing .map file when using UGX script placer?

I hope a UGX member or someone could help me out because I love mapping but the past few days working on the UGX mod have been a living hell for me.

Thanks,

Help zombies do little damage

Hey guys I installed the ugx mod using the new script placer and everything installed fine but i noticed today while testing my map that the zombies do hardly any damage. It takes around 15 to 20 hits on round 1 just to go down. So I started looking around but all i found was this: http://ugx-mods.com/forum/index.php?topic=2804.msg27413#msg27413 which has a similar problem but I don't know exactly how they fixed it. If anyone could help me out that'd be awesome.
